Yesterday was good fun II

Well, I had a "Yesterday was good fun" a while back so this one is II.

First, something I was thinking of saying, I'll cut it out, though if this isn't LJ, skim to the next "***".

As most of you will know, me and Marohen kind of went apart at Christmas, but now we're back together again. But I can't get over it, I keep being scared that he'll go again, and I for some reason, can't accept that someone likes (or loves) me, I'm getting quite worried about it. :s

On to yesterday! (Sunday 28th)
Well, as it's my B-day on Wednesday (the 31st.) My Mum and Dad planned this secrete day out.
I woke in the morning, turned on my laptop and carried on what I was doing the night before, reading about the Perl programming language. Then my Mum came in and said 'get up' because we were going out somewhere, it was weird, made weirder by the fact that my brother was in a suit and maybe that I was also half asleep too.
Anyway, caught on to the fact that everyone was dressed up I asked if I got to try on my new suit too. This is my new suit that I got for my B-day on the Saturday. Anyway, while I was getting ready to go, having a shower and all, Dad and my brother went out, away in his car, when I was ready, my Mum, me, my sister and her BF got in my Mums car and we drove off, into Bolton. I still had no clue where we were going.
Anyway, went through and out of Bolton, onto the motorway heading south, the only reason we go that way is usually to go down to Lestershire, where all my extended family live.
About 2 hours later, as usual, we were going through Kegworth where my Grandma and Granddad live, but we went past there, through Hathern and into Loughborough. Anyway, after traveling through the centre we turned down this little road and I new immediately where we were, we were at a railway station, not just anyone though, this was one that was kept by volunteers and had steam engines running through it. As my Mum drove past the door I could see quite a lot of the family in there including my Brother and his GF. I got out and went to meet them all, everyone was there! Lots of hugging, talking and handshaking, I was collecting cards and bags, there was a folder full of pictures of me from when I was a baby till now going around. We then moved down to a platform. I found more of my family were in a little bar on the platform (Uncle Stuart knows the place to be.) My Nanna was also in there too, my Nanna likes her drink. :p
Anyways, our train pulled in, got into the old first class dining cars and I started opening my cards. :)

Then we had dinner, the fabulous dinner. :) while being pulled along by an old steam engine, stopping every now and again so the "conductor" could talk about the views, quite a bit of history was about the line and surrounding areas.

As we finished dinner we pulled back into the station, I got a drink on the house as it was a celebration of my B-day, my Mum won a bottle of wine in a raffle and then we all went back to my Grandma and Granddad's house for birthday cake, this is also where I got more cards and things. o_o Then as the evening went on people started going then about 7pm we got ready to come back home. About 9pm we got back home, so I watched some TV for a few hours and went to bed. :p

This morning I just put up all the cards. :)

family, stuff, b-days
